We would also like to express our heartfelt thanks to the volunteers who turned up unprompted first thing this morning to assist our clean-up operation.
They embody the real values of Teesside as opposed to those intent on causing disruption and division within our communities.
Our core business, transforming lives and economies through education, continues as usual, and we continue to work with our community partners to protect and celebrate our values. (2 of 2) – at Middlesbrough, England

The violence and disorder that took place in Middlesbrough on Sunday is not representative of our town and community.
We are proud to be part of a diverse and inclusive community and are saddened by these acts of violence carried out by a small minority of individuals. (1 of 2) – at Middlesbrough, England

The streets of Middlesbrough are full… full of good people with brooms and wheelbarrows, as the streets are cleaned in the aftermath. The community will come together. This is the side of Boro I love. ❤️
It has been a privilege to watch @andy_murray for all these years. What an outstanding athlete and player.
